To this day DishNet has been the only one to carry these as a superstation package just like we used to get on Cband.
You should be able to add it to your account (online through myDISH) for $2 per month. According to Dish's Website here your still eligible to receive KTLA as well as all the other superstitions. My Setup: 5-LNB SlimLine with SWM-16 | HR44-700 | H44-500 w/DVR Kit | HR24-200 | H25-100 | C41-500. Like.
I know it happens while watching Raymond re-runs at 6:30pm. It will start the opening of the show, right before the title credits. Then, right before the punchline of the opening joke, I get a blue screen and when it returns 5-10 sec later, the shows in commercial. Happens like clock work every night. It has to be a KTLA problem. GJ
I have watched KTLA from 1985 here in the NW off a KTLA news feed that was on nightly. Later on KTLA became a Super Station and later scrambled and I bought a VC2 to subscribe to the Super Station package. About 1999 we were losing more and more channels and there was Dish with the Super Stations and East/west locals.
KTLA was given a free license in the transition process to digital. The FCC required stations to be broadcasting in digital, and the use was for the primary video to be seen in digital. If you go back to when a special satellite feed of WWOR was carried on C-Band, it's content was significantly different than the local WWOR beaming out of ...
Rural Media Group announces today the official launch of The Cowgirl Channel, a new television network dedicated to women in western sports and the modern-day cowgirl. The Cowgirl Channel will officially launch in HD on Dish Network Channel 269 and on SLING in February of 2023. The new network will be offered as part of Dish Network’s ...
Note that as the superstations are all CW network stations. To clarify, WPIX, KTLA, and KWGN are CW stations. WSBK is independent, and WWOR is a MyNetwork affiliate. I get my locak channels but I also get the Superstation package mainly cause I am a fan of news from other cities I just like to know whats going on.
Now, the question is whether the stations involved will want Echostar to actively enforce SHVERA against the CW stations. In many markets they may, but Tribune may not care if your local CW station and the remote CW stations are all Tribune stations (so in LA you could watch Denver's KWGN, and in Denver you could watch KTLA.)
The Definition of Superstation (BY the FCC) only allows all of the current Stations as True Superstations, WPIX, WWOR, WSBK, KWGN, and KTLA carried by DBS nationwide. TBS and WGN are NOT true superstations, regardless of the fact they calll themselves by that term.
KTLA, WPIX, WSBK and KWGN vanished from national cable distribution outside of a few lingering regional cable systems that are now subject to blackout. For example until more local affiliates launched cable systems in the northeast continued to used WSBK and WPIX as their initial source of UPN and WB programming.
